clashing htaccess rules .php file extention still accessible

I have been trying to get my urls re-written. The first 4 rules are vital, but they are clashing with this line: (i think).

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]+\ /([^.#?\ ]+)\.php([#?][^\ ]*)?\ HTTP/

this stops the url being able to be accessed like so www.example.com/page.php and redirects to www.example.com/page/

after adding the first 4 rules you can see in the htaccess, the above condition doesnt seem to work and Im able to access urls like this :(

lovelakedistrict.com/lake-district-cottages.php/cottages/5/

obviously i should be like this

lovelakedistrict.com/lake-district-cottages/cottages/5/

however this still works :)

lovelakedistrict.com/lake-district-cottages.php --> lovelakedistrict.com/lake-district-cottages/

This is my htaccess file- can anyone see what happening?

The condition pattern doesn't match your URLs that contain PATH_INFO, but simplifying it a bit to something like this should take care of that:

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]+\ /([^.?\ ]+)\.php
RewriteCond %1 !^include/
RewriteRule ^([^.]+)\.php(/.+)?$ /$1%{PATH_INFO} [R=301,L]
